But let's face it, CV19 is not going to be the end of humanity, with or without the vaccines. Let those who wish to roll the dice, to do so. The knowledge is now out there to protect you and yours, let others evaluate the data as they see fit. Hah, they might prove to be geniuses if the rest of us die off in 10 years from some sort of weird effect. I know that's extremely unlikely, it's a joke. Hopefully. 
Even with 100% vaccination >12YO the virus won't just disappear. Still plenty of <12YO hosts out there. Vaccinated can still transmit it, and the potency of that wears off according to the data. Boosters will be necessary... this is a long haul thing, if not permanent like the flu, not something we can eradicate. People on both sides of this bickering back and forth as if either has a crystal ball is seriously draining. Personally and on a national level.

Amen to that. A shining star has fallen and returned to it's resting place.
No one escapes from the big one. How you go is where you can maintain some control over.
I rather go quickly and painlessly in my sleep (that does tend to happen to people who's healthy, fit, and does tons of cardio). Rather than having tubes stuck inside of me and trying not to drown with a liquid filled lung.
